Experiencing slow Internet with Intel I219-LM

Support Network
1

Hello all,

I am using a desktop computer with this ethernet controller:
Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection (14) I219-LM (rev 11)

Manjaro is able to connect to the internet but the connection is very slow compared to how it performed using Windows.

I am not a Linux expert and would appreciate any assistance in troubleshooting this issue. Here is some information that might be useful as I’ve seen it requested in other support threads:

Kernel version: 6.5.5-1-MANJARO
DE: KDE Plasma 5.27.8
Machine: Dell OptiPlex 7090
Network: Device-1: Intel Ethernet I219-LM vendor: Dell driver: e1000e v: kernel port: N/A bus-ID: 00:1f.6 chip-ID: 8086:15f9 class-ID: 0200 IF: enp0s31f6 state: up speed: 1000 Mbps duplex: full mac: <filter>

LSPCI for Ethernet:

lsmod | grep e1000e:

Is this slow internet generally, or when you perform an update?

If the latter:

You can use this command to find the fastest mirrors before updating:

sudo pacman-mirrors --fasttrack && sudo pacman -Syu

If it’s slow internet generally, without more information, :person_shrugging: .

Cheers.
